This porter has a nice black color, excellent bitter coffee aroma however not much head (at least pouring it from a bottle to a glass). The flavor mirrors the aroma and is very flavorful upfront, finishing clean. Porters can be pretty hit or miss in my book ranging from a beer that is dark in color but weak in flavor to ones you’d almost mistake for a stout. Summit’s version is a nice, solid porter that I think I’m enjoying more this year than in the past.
